Bikini Bottom Genetics Name ________________________________ Exceptions to Mendel’s Simple Inheritance Incomplete Dominance SpongeBob and his pal Patrick love to go jellyfishing at Jellyfish Fields! The fields are home to a special type of green jellyfish known as Goobers and only really great jellyfishermen are lucky enough to catch some on every trip. Many of the jellyfish are yellow (YY) or blue (yy), but some end up green as a result of incomplete dominance. Use this information to help you complete each section below. 1. What would happen if SpongeBob and Patrick crossed two “goobers” or green jellyfish? Complete the Punnett square to help you determine the probability for each color of jellyfish. (a) Give the possible genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring. (b) What percentage of the offspring would be yellow? _____% (c) What percentage would be blue? _____ % (d) What percentage would be “goobers” (green)? _____ % 2. What would happen if they crossed a yellow jellyfish with a goober? Complete the Punnett square to help you determine the probability for each color of jellyfish. (a) Give the possible genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring. (b) What percentage of the offspring would be yellow? _____% (c) What percentage would be blue? _____ % (d) What percentage would be “goobers” (green)? _____ % 3. What would happen if they crossed a blue jellyfish with a yellow jellyfish? Complete the Punnett square to help you answer the questions. If 100 jellyfish were produced from this cross, how many would you expect for each? Yellow - _____ Blue - _____ Goobers - ______ Sex-Linked Inheritance 1. Hemophilia in humans is due to an X-chromosome mutation. What will be the results of mating between a normal (non-carrier) female and a hemophilac male? List the probability of all the phenotypes and genotypes of all offspring. *Draw the pedigree for the above scenario: 2. A human female "carrier" who is heterozygous for the recessive, sex-linked trait causing red-green color blindness marries a normal male. What proportion of their male progeny will have red-green color blindness? What proportion of their female progeny will show the trait? *Draw the pedigree for the above scenario: 3. Which of a man's grandparents could not be the source of any of the genes on his Y-chromosome? A. Father's Mother. B. Mother's Father. C. Father's Father. D. Mother's Mother, Mother's Father, and Father's Mother. E. Mother's Mother.
